Re: [PATCH 1/2] nativesdk-perl: fix dependecy

[Robert Yang <liezhi.yang@windriver.com>]

Hi Richard,

Here are more details for this problem:

RRECOMMENDS_perl-modules = "${@d.getVar('PACKAGES', True)...}"

The PACKAGES would be reset by do_split_packages since:

PACKAGES_DYNAMIC = "perl-module-*"
PACKAGES_DYNAMIC_virtclass-nativesdk = "nativesdk-perl-module-*"

Then:
1) The target perl-modules RRECOMMENDS on perl-module-*, this is what
    we expect.

2) But the nativesdk-perl-modules doesn't RRECOMMENDS on
    nativesdk-perl-module-*, this is not what we expect.

I have checked the value of PACKAGES after do_split_packages, it has been
set correctly (it contains the nativesdk-perl-module-* packages)

But the:

RRECOMMENDS_perl-modules = "${@d.getVar('PACKAGES', True)...}"

doesn't work correctly for nativesdk, the d.getVar('RRECOMMENDS_perl-modules', 
True) doesn't get the new value of the PACKAGES, it gets the value of PACKAGES
before the do_split_packages.

The current patch would fix the problem, but I don't know the root cause,
do you have any comments or directions, please?
